José Manuel "El Borrego"(original) |
A la luz de las estrellas |
Empuñaba su guitarra |
Le cantaba a las botellas: |
El alcohol lo apasionaba |
José Manuel «El Borrego» |
Jiménez de apellidaba |
Lo quería mucho su prieta: |
Marcelina se llamaba |
Cuando se iba de su casa |
Ella siempre lo buscaba |
Pero él tenía un escondite |
Donde nadie lo encontraba |
Cuando estaba en las cantinas |
No sentía ningún dolor |
Por cuatro copas queridas |
Dejaba al más grande amor |
El borrego no era tonto |
Porque siempre se cuidaba |
Pero un día que vino Reyna |
A invitarlo a la parranda |
Cuando llegó Marcelina |
José la tenía abrazada |
Lo mató por su cariño |
Y él ya no le dijo nada |
Cuando Reyna y sus amigos |
Gritaron «¡Aquí no hay nada!» |
Ella se cubrió de llanto |
Pero se guardo una bala |
Cuando estaba en las cantinas |
No sentía ningún dolor |
Por cuatro copas queridas |
Dejaba al más grande amor |
(translation) |
in the light of the stars |
She was holding her guitar |
She sang to the bottles: |
He was passionate about alcohol |
Jose Manuel "El Borrego" |
Jiménez de surnamed |
He loved his cousin very much: |
Marcelina was called |
when she left home |
she was always looking for him |
But he had a hiding place |
where no one found |
When he was in the cantinas |
He didn't feel any pain |
For four drinks dear |
He left the greatest love |
The sheep was not stupid |
Because he always took care of himself |
But one day Reyna came |
To invite him to the party |
When did Marceline arrive? |
José had her in his arms |
She killed him for his love |
And he didn't say anything to her anymore |
When Reyna and her friends |
They shouted “There is nothing here!” |
She covered herself with tears |
But she saved a bullet |
When he was in the cantinas |
He didn't feel any pain |
For four drinks dear |
I left the greatest love |
